Chat Group: Starting by Body Swapping with Elysia? - Chapter 4

Chapter 4: You’re Deliberately Picking a Fight, Aren’t You?

***

Having Elysia comfort the cooking girl’s mental state was naturally a piece of cake, that’s what she does!

But doing things while enduring his own mild concussion was somewhat torturous.

So Jiang Qiao studied the chat group in his head and found something useful.

— Red packets.

By consuming 1 point, he could send various items to group members, such as props and the like.

There were two sources of points: daily sign-in gave 1 point, and there was also a special panel — Dimensional Commission.

This was a task panel where completing the tasks that appeared could also earn a certain amount of points.

Jiang Qiao: “Online waiting, does anyone have quick-acting medicine for concussion or something?”

Jiang Qiao directly chose to seek help from the almighty group members.

However, the group chat fell into brief silence.

He thought about it and realized why.

Among the group members who had appeared earlier—

The red-haired one from Madoka’s world, indeed the magical girl system was quite versatile with all kinds of abilities, but if you’re looking for a healer, you need to find the right person! Pink-hair and blue-hair can do it, but asking me, a red-hair who plays with illusions, isn’t this deliberately picking a fight?

Laughable, no healing, can’t squeeze out even a drop!

Hall Master Hu… she’s in the funeral business. Rather than seeking medicine from her, it would be more appropriate to pre-order a coffin and funeral service. As for those dishes from the game, expecting them to work as medicine in reality — wake up!

As for Jiang Qiao on the Previous Era side, don’t even mention it, still in the early Previous Era, the technology hasn’t even been developed yet! Even if he found Mobius, she wouldn’t be able to help!

Hu Tao: “Well, how about I go to Bubu Pharmacy and ask Dr. Baizhu to make you a prescription?”

Baizhu could definitely treat concussion, but expecting him to provide instant results was wishful thinking. Taking medicine would definitely require quite some time to recover.

Elysia: “Oh my, no need to worry~ Although it’s a bit uncomfortable, I can still move around normally~”

She was a Fire Moth warrior after all. Even if it wasn’t her own body, just a mild concussion of this degree wouldn’t be a problem.

Crimson Demon Clan’s Future Leader: “Um, I have some medicine here, just not sure if it’ll be effective.”

The message that popped up in the group chat caught Jiang Qiao’s attention, and only then did he notice this group member who didn’t have much presence.

This ID… Crimson Demon Clan, Megumin? No, it should be Yunyun!

Jiang Qiao instantly made his judgment.

The world of KonoSuba indeed had quite a few magical items.

Jiang Qiao: “Want to try?”

Yunyun: “O-okay!”

— Yunyun sent you a red packet.

Looking at the potion that appeared before him, Jiang Qiao nearly blacked out.

I’m not injured, what use is sending it to me!

Jiang Qiao: “Idiot, it’s not for me, it’s for Elysia!”

Yunyun: “Ah! Sorry… I’ll resend it!”

Yunyun: “Uh… I’m out of points.”

Currently, everyone’s source was only the 1 point from daily sign-in. After Yunyun sent it to Jiang Qiao, she naturally became point-broke.

“Really has that KonoSuba flavor to it.”

Jiang Qiao was somewhat speechless, but couldn’t say much about it.

After all, he hadn’t explained clearly beforehand, and the other party had good intentions.

Fortunately, he also had 1 point and could resend the medicine in his hand to Elysia.

Amazing, the chat group became the biggest winner, earning 2 points from one potion!

Elysia: “Received it, received it~”

Elysia on the other side of the chat had already received this second-hand medicine from the mix-up.

The kind-hearted Yunyun was obviously very concerned about the specific situation and quickly asked:

How do you feel?

Elysia: “Mm-hmm~ What a wonderful feeling, I feel much better now. I’ll give you a return gift, Yunyun~”

Seeing this message, Jiang Qiao muttered:

“Magic really doesn’t make sense.”

Whether it’s external or internal injuries, one red potion down the hatch and it’s all healed instantly.

“Alright, I also need to handle things properly on my end.”

The pink girl stood up, took off her pajamas, and opened the closet in the corner.

At this time, as a Fire Moth soldier, Elysia couldn’t let Jiang Qiao stay holed up in the room.

While Elysia needed to go win over Raiden Mei and save Nagazora City, he also had to handle Elysia’s life properly.

Elysia’s closet, who had joined Fire Moth not too long ago, wasn’t as full as Jiang Qiao had imagined. Instead, it was quite simple. One Fire Moth soldier uniform, one casual outfit, and one… maid outfit. That was all.

“Seriously, miHoYo was totally cutting costs.”

Looking at that Fire Moth soldier uniform, Jiang Qiao recalled Elysia from the story and couldn’t help but complain.

It was completely different!

But this was quite normal. After all, Elysia’s most commonly worn Flame-Chaser outfit was carefully designed by that great artist Eden. There were still who knows how many years before Eden joined Fire Moth, so where would the Flame-Chaser outfit come from for Jiang Qiao to wear?

Although early Fire Moth would consider soldiers’ aesthetic appearance to some extent, no matter what, she was still a soldier, and merely a soldier who had just joined the organization. Naturally, Elysia’s clothing wouldn’t be so customized.

Just like how Elysia prided herself on her figure in the story, this perfect girlish body made all those clothes fit easily. Even while getting dressed, Jiang Qiao had spare time to admire his own figure.

Not too big, not too small, like unripe apples and cherries, just right.

“I’m so beautiful.”

Feeling refreshed, Jiang Qiao looked at his graceful self in the dressing mirror and couldn’t help but sigh like this, but soon slapped his cheeks.

Calm down, calm down, this is Elysia’s body. I’m a proper 7-foot-tall man!

After admonishing himself like this, Jiang Qiao adjusted the smile on his face to make it closer to the Elysia in his memory, then walked out of the room.

What he needed to do today was go to the training ground for training.

Regarding this matter, Jiang Qiao held some concerns, since he was a fake Elysia after all.

Training and such, he had absolutely no clue!

But he soon discovered an even more serious problem.

— Where is the training ground?

This was a very troubling question for Jiang Qiao.

As an organization established jointly by countries worldwide with funding to resist the Honkai eruption, Fire Moth’s base wasn’t small even in the early days.

And for him, this fake fatty, to find the training ground in this completely unfamiliar massive base—

“Morning, Elysia!”

Just as Jiang Qiao stood frozen in place, feeling somewhat at a loss, a somewhat familiar and casual greeting voice sounded nearby.

He looked over and saw a young man with aqua-blue hair wearing a soldier’s uniform, smiling as he greeted him.
